Starting immediately, #MarketFriday will be paused for a period of time. I want to thank you for your support along the way and I look forward to seeing you back when I resume the posting concept.
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

I came for the sun flowers and stayed for the blog posts, I notice you have a few witness votes free, I appreciate it if you could send me one.
Thank you for #marketfriday, Denise. I have loved being part of it and look forward to its resumption
Enjoy your break and be well.
Thank you, my sweet friend. ❤️
#MarketFriday loves you!
"Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy," or so says, Guillaume Apollinaire. I could never say it as well as he, however I hope you find some happiness in this pause, time for yourself which, after so much effort, is probably exactly what you need.
I'll see you around still for sure, and look forward to it, but enjoy the little gap you've created and make the most of it Swigs.
Thank you! I am sure that I have already found it, :)
Le sign.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Yay for happiness.
i see i'm not the only one taking a break fromposting ;) hope you are doing well
Hi, Mick! @stresskiller
I am fine and I hope you are too. :)
all is fine here the grand daughter is almost 18 months old now time flies :)
Honestly, I could never even imagine how much time you dedicated to this whole Market Friday thing with so many entries in every round and so much engagement around it. I run some regular initiatives myself and even though they are incomparably less time consuming than Market Friday, I still struggle to keep them alive sometimes. And I´m not even speaking about your comments left under other people´s posts and replies to comments under your own posts... The amount of time and energy that you have spent on Hive is simply incredible. This will never be forgotten Denise. Take as much time for yourself as you need. We will be here :)
You always say: "Market Friday loves you!" We now say to you: "Hive loves you!" :)
@tipu curate
Thank you, you make me blush! There are always a lot of comments and it is always a pleasure to answer them, only to be commented back and for the and back. The volley is fun, yes? I won't lie, it is a lot of work, coupled with a job, family, and life going on, but, it gives me so much pleasure! I know it gives you a tremendous amount of pleasure too.
This was such a sweet comment!
I was thinking I was just slow and didn't work quickly enough. :) No kidding.
I love Hive too!!!! Thank you so much, always!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Thank you!
I was just thinking of you today Denise after I spied you in Discord this week, and see you have been commenting!
Happy Easter and welcome back @dswigle
Thanks! Im back, but havent been writing yet, and no resl commenting. Ill get there! Thanks for stopping by and leaving your words!
@tengalotodo
Thank you! I am back and catching up~
That is sad. #marketfriday is a Hive institution. I hope all is well with you. All is well with you?
Let me know if it is some help that you need to keep it going. I'd be happy to pinch hit until you are back; I am sure I am not the only one.
That is so sweet of you! Honestly, I never even thought of that. I run it with only me and vote on my own nickel, so I would never ask anyone else to do that. But, only a couple of people did one this week as I said I was pausing.
I am sure it is because they don't read my posts. :) It is difficult when English is not even your third language. I would be hard-pressed to translate everything I do on here, so I understand.
Thanks so much - and yes! I am fine! A little burnt out, but, then you probably guessed that. Love to you, my friend! ❤️
#MarketFriday loves you! xoxo
Sorry to hear about the burnout. Been there. A rest is always a good thing:)
Hi Denise, I'll miss #marketfriday but understand that RL at times keeps us away from the keyboard, I for one have only now come up for air!
Take good care of yourself and I look forward to seeing you around again 💞
I have been waiting to see you out and about. xoxo It has not been long at all for you and I am so happy to see your smiling face. ❤️
I hope you have got your bearings and I am looking forward to seeing you again. xo
#MarketFriday loves you!
For whichever reason you need to take a break may it be a wonderful time away and filled with bouquets of flowers
Thank you! I certainly love the way you think! ❤️ I'll be back soon. Love to you and the family!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Holy moly. Just my luck. I havent MFed for a while and decide I need to do one and poof... 🤣
Well I posted it and am sad to see it being paused. Hopefully it is only until the sun and fun is waning and we are forced back indoors.
I'm sad to see it paused also, but, it is what it is. :) I know it is your favorite saying.
#MarketFriday loves you!
Thank you for all you have done, @dswigle! Take as much time as you need! I am looking forward to the time when you are ready to resume again! Until then, take great care of yourself, I believe we all will be waiting right here!
It has been an enjoyable concept to see with many interesting posts to read from around the world. You've worked hard at it, only you will know the effort it has taken, and a pause for some well-deserved rest is well-earned.
Becca 🌷
Thank you @becca-mac. I appreciate your words. Have a wonderful weekend!
#MarketFriday loves you!
It is sad, but, we all need a break so take your time and enjoy it ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Thank you so much. I appreciate your words.
#MarketFriday loves you!
We'll be waiting... Enjoy your break.
❤️
Thank you! You are positively kind!
#MarketFriday loves you!
Your sunflower photos are always cheery, but photo 4.... just Wow ! Love how the sun is coming in behind the petals, lighting them up and throwing little shadows at the base of them.
Everybody deserves a pause now and then. I hope it is just because you want too and/or your life will be full of fun cruises and the such.
It's Friday morning, the best day of the workweek. I told Lexa to start the coffee and I hear the drip pot finishing in the kitchen. Yes, the day will be full of phone calls that are not my fav, but the promise of the weekend starting soon will pull me through.
Take care !
You are so kind, thank you so much. I love all the sunflowers! I am going tomorrow and probably Sunday, after that, it is closed for the season!
It is because I want to for just a bit, between work, family, and real life... well, it doesn't leave much time to just be. :) I won't go on a cruise until the extreme heat goes away.
Friday is my fun day... Wait! That is Sunday, right? My I-don't-have-to -run-day?
Oh! Your Lexa is nice! Making coffee and such. Mine just flips me the bird now and again. All the phone calls today! I hope that it is just a lovely night, pushing you into the weekend.
Le sigh... Thanks for the words. xoxo Be back to the Markets soon!
#NarketFriday loves you!
Many of us will miss #MarketFriday, it is a very nice concept, but a pause sometimes is so needed.
Hope to see you back, and the event, anytime soon 🤗
Thank you! So sweet are your words. No worries, I will be back, sooner than later!

Not entirely yet, but getting there. It seems like I have been forever. One big adventure and it will continue for a little while.

I do hope that you enjoy a good time while you are away.
Sunflowers are one of the most popular and beautiful flowers that I know. They are very lovely.
Thanks for blessing our eyes...

Markets will always be there, people wandering through enjoying being sociable toward each other. Thanks for enjoyment in sharing on Friday's.
Life gives us choice, I hope you enjoy time whatever you wander, take time to always smell the flowers wherever you go.
See you again soon, hasten back with new adventures Denise.

Best.
Taking some time off is never a bad decision, I hope you come back with more energy and renewed, we are waiting for you!
Have a lovely and well-deserved break, @dswigle! I’m sure some people will still do Market Friday posts. It can be hard to break the habit once you get into stride!
I'm sorry to see this stopping exactly in the day when I was posting for your community. But can't wait for it to be back ❤️
Hey chick, I hope you are well and enjoying a relaxing break.
Just checking in cos you know, we loves ya 🙂
Hello!
Hope you are having a good time resting and enjoying yourself.
This place seems rather quiet these days.
We all need a good holiday and change of atmosphere!
Spectacular sunflower 🌻… love them. 🇺🇦
